This season, Curry hasn't been that steady. From the end of November to the present, Curry's performance has been a bit of a big ups and downs, especially since entering January, Curry's three-point shooting rate is below 30%. Curry played poorly, and the Warriors naturally lost! But what was the situation with the Warriors early in the season? That is, although Curry plays poorly, there are some games that the Warriors can take down! There have also been many games where Curry has been crazy to play iron, but the Warriors have won from all angles. So for a while the Warriors gave the impression that this is a very strong team, at least the team looks very strong. But recently, as long as Curry doesn't play, the Warriors' game is mostly gone!
There are two players here who are key, one is Poole and the other is Wiggins! Poole is expected, because Thompson returns, he will inevitably go to the bench, each game his playing time is not too much, the number of shots is not too much, his play and eat state, naturally the feeling of the game will go down, Poole is sinking! The other player is Wiggins, who has been robbed of his mouth a bit recently! In the period before Thompson's comeback, Wiggins could average more than twenty points per game, and the efficiency remained above 50%, but this wave of Thompson's comeback, Wiggins also began to return to the health mode!
The most obvious thing is that Wiggins's established style of play has changed, and it feels very wrong. In the past, the Warriors' first quarter games were generally mouthy, and the Warriors would try to let Wiggins play more tactics and score more points in the first quarter, so many first-quarter games Wiggins could play very well, but now in the first quarter, Wiggins seems to be unable to find a feeling! The first thought of breaking through without strength, singles without confidence, sitting in a low position is not to eat alone but to think about passing, and the sense of presence in playing has begun to decrease, what does this lead to? As a result, the Warriors only have one core point in Curry.
Because the ball is playing back and forth, after Wiggins does not take the initiative to attack, the ball will continue to give players such as brother-in-law, Anderson and even Iguodala, their grasp is not so great, and it is the feeling of last season after a long time, curry wants to open the game! The current Warriors game is very straightforward, Curry is locked up is equivalent to losing, there is no room for struggle. At the beginning of the season, Curry's sluggish games were also many, but at that point in time, Poole and Zui brother continued to cut points, and the team's crisis could be easily passed, and now these two people can't cut points!
Expecting Wiggins to hold such a dozen points in a game is not thirsty at all, and now the Warriors' tactics have been a bit deformed. Cole still wants to play the set of things for 15 years and 16 years, and it can be seen from his use that Iguodala is a large number of simultaneous appearances with the Splash Brothers, but the effect is really very general. At least the current lineup has declined a lot compared with 15 years and 16 years. The Warriors want Iguodala to continue to be an all-around point, but now he can't do it, when Curry and Thompson can't shoot three points, the Warriors' ball is the same as the G7 in the 16-year Finals, and everyone watches them play iron!
